I’m not saying they should do research at all, just take steps to separate yourselves from the awful practices practiced by the bug players right now.

We should be able to talk about advances in cancer research without having to have a discussion about how AI is going overall, including the shitty actors.

And, to be fair, most of the good projects you are defending do differentiate themselves very publicly about the differences and how they are more responsible. All I’m saying is that is a good thing. Companies should be scrambling to distance themselves from openAI, copilot, and whatever else the big tech companies have created.
